How Good Is Andy Carroll? by sinistyle(m): 2:32pm On Nov 29, 2010 |
How good is Andy Carroll? I think he is really good and one of the hottest youngsters in football as we speak. He is fast becoming defenders nightmare and his 8 or 9 goals for Newcastle this season proves just that |

He is a BEAST! Simple! |
Re: How Good Is Andy Carroll? by medjai(m): 5:42pm On Nov 29, 2010 |
I think he's just a big man that knows how to use his body and strength, nothing more. He is technically poor, he can hardly trap a ball. The bulk of his goals have been lucky goals. Huge potential no doubt plus he's only 21 so there's still room for improvement but for now, he's just there, nothing special |

sinistyle: Hottest youngster in which football? Have you heard about Mesut Ozil, Stevan Jovetic, Thomas Muller, Gerrard Pique, Mario Goetze, Romelo Lukaku, Toni Kroos, Miralem Pjanic, Lewis Holtby, Javier Pastore, Matt Hummels, Simon Kjaer, Benedikt Howedes, Juan Mata etc medjai: Still way better than all Assanal strikers |

dayokanu: yeh, They have good attributes in football manager 11 |
Re: How Good Is Andy Carroll? by dayokanu(m): 8:59pm On Nov 29, 2010 |
^^ Carrol never even enter football manager. Has carrol ever played a European game? |
Re: How Good Is Andy Carroll? by jaybee3(m): 9:02pm On Nov 29, 2010 |
He is a tall lanky striker known for his heading. Slightly stronger than peter crouch but less skillfull nothing spectacular about him as i doubt he will flourish in the continent where crosses aren't normally put in at every attempt. |

Is he better than elmander or ivan klasnic ! He's still a kid wh0 has l0t to learn ! |
Re: How Good Is Andy Carroll? by sinistyle(m): 5:03pm On Nov 30, 2010 |
Haba! So y'all think he isnt really that good? Well, he isnt finished product yet, he is just 21 but I think he is very good. 9 goals in his debut EPL season and he isnt exactly playing in front of the best midfield around |
Re: How Good Is Andy Carroll? by jaybee3(m): 7:02pm On Nov 30, 2010 |
^^^ Cos he scored 9 goals then we should tag him as good? Have u ever heard of Andy Johnson, Francis Jeffers? Any similarities? |
Re: How Good Is Andy Carroll? by A40(m): 7:12pm On Nov 30, 2010 |
The guy does a lot more than just score! He is more or less everywhere on the pitch bursting his a$$ out for the team every match. If he keeps his head on the ground he would go on to be a very good player |

dayokanu:you must be on some good sh-it if you think andy carroll is better than chamakh or van persie. |
Re: How Good Is Andy Carroll? by dayokanu(m): 9:51pm On Nov 30, 2010 |
hax: Andy Carrol - 9 goals slowpoke Chamakh - 7 goals Van rap1st - 2 goals If Carrol scores 2 more goals, He would have scored more league goals than what Van rap1st has ever scored in any season in his whole miserable career |
Re: How Good Is Andy Carroll? by chic2pimp(m): 10:22pm On Nov 30, 2010 |
dayokanu:Can You Imagine? Yet Gaynners would want us to Believe that Van Persie is the greatest thing since sliced bread. |
Re: How Good Is Andy Carroll? by dipo2much(m): 11:09pm On Nov 30, 2010 |
^^ Guy,dey try use ur brain na! At least,I imagine that you are not like dayokanu who doesnt have a funtioning brain. How many games RVP don start ds season? Yet you dey compare am to Carroll wey dey play everygame. Stupidly foolish |
Re: How Good Is Andy Carroll? by dayokanu(m): 11:16pm On Nov 30, 2010 |
^^ Shut your stinking gob. How many seasons of top flight football has Van r@pist played? I about 10yrs as a striker he is yet to score 11 league goals. Shame |
Re: How Good Is Andy Carroll? by chic2pimp(m): 11:30pm On Nov 30, 2010 |
dipo2much:I would be lying If I said I expected any better from a Gaynner. Anyways, I think the question you should be asking is "Why is the much hyped Van Persie yet to hit the 15 league goals a season benchmark(the absolute bare minimum for a supposed Top Class striker)"? |
Re: How Good Is Andy Carroll? by dipo2much(m): 6:49am On Dec 01, 2010 |
thats a easy question. I will assume u dont know the answer. RVP is injury prone. simple Arsenal fans arent the only ones who talk about RVP. So its not just 'hype'. How many natural left footers have you in World football? If he was just 'hype' why is he a sure starter in holland even to this day ? RVP is up there with rooney,torres,higuain when he is fit. You neednt agree |
